    <thetext>Several command endpoints talk about &quot;Return type: void&quot;.  This is misleading because we don&apos;t send a response (not even an empty JSON dictionary) in such cases.</thetext>

    <thetext>Sorry that was misleading.  Of course we send responses (https://dvcs.w3.org/hg/webdriver/raw-file/tip/webdriver-spec.html#response-1) but it&apos;s unclear to me how we translate &quot;void&quot; into that.</thetext>

    <thetext>just so I can understand the issue...

We need to have a definition of when the WebIDL is void that we return success JSON blob?</thetext>

&gt; just so I can understand the issue...
&gt; 
&gt; We need to have a definition of when the WebIDL is void that we return
&gt; success JSON blob?

My impression was that we were not going to use WebIDL at all for defining
the commands and responses.</thetext>

    <thetext>We have removed IDL or in the process as we rewrite the spec so am closing.</thetext>
